What If Your Perception Of Yourself Is Wrong? (1854)

Is your self-perception accurate? In this episode, Kevin and Alan discuss how we often see ourselves differently than others. They break down the three layers of the ego: who we think we are, who we want to be, and who we really are. Kevin shares personal stories of struggling with self-worth despite external success and how his self-doubt still lingers. Alan highlights how experience builds confidence, especially in areas like fitness, and why social anxiety often stems from the fear of being judged. The episode emphasizes the importance of aligning your self-perception with reality and focusing on internal growth rather than external validation.Links mentioned:Next Level Nation - https://www.facebook.com/groups/459320958216700Free 30-Minute Business Coaching Call with Alan: https://bit.ly/3ASu9wuFree 30-Minute Podcast Breakthrough Session with Kevin: https://bit.ly/3MAuczF______________________NLU is not just a podcast; it’s a gateway to a wealth of resources designed to help you achieve your goals and dreams.
